Copy-trader vs algo bot: the key difference

A copy-trader like EdgeBot does NOT decide on its own — it mirrors a human trader. An algo bot decides autonomously via technical rules. Copy trading keeps the strategy in the hands of a competent human.

7 criteria to choose an MT5 copy-trader

1) Source signal transparency. 2) Sub-500ms replica latency. 3) Proportional lot sizing. 4) Broker compatibility. 5) One-time setup (no hidden subscriptions). 6) Real technical support. 7) Verifiable track record. EdgeBot Lite and Pro tick all seven.

Why one-time payment is more honest

Monthly subscriptions push vendors to hide losses so you don't churn. One-time payment aligns incentives: the vendor wins only if the tool works long-term. EdgeBot is €500 (Lite) or €1,000 (Pro), one-time, zero profit share.
